Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

I Walk directly into the camp, and stand near the fire for now.

I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

ahhhh heck I'll sneak into the camp, hope I don't die. After I'm in, try and figure out if they're hostile to all spirits or only malignant ones

Eh, I don’t really need to speak or appear, so I’ll just Soul Bond. I shouldn’t spend mana unless I can do something useful with it, and getting mana from people who already have their own familiars wouldn’t work (and at minimum, might be rude).

Good if you can't focus on a single project long enough to make a full game. Or for making an entire large game, if you feel like it.

Scout the peripheries of the camp. Try to locate where my chicken brethren are .

Actually, due to the nature of how mana works in this world, 90% of the time an ability used sensibly refunds itself.

Example - if you use a Green mana ability to improve the bond between yourself and a human, or if you use a Red mana ability to protect or harm someone, you will generally gain more mana than you lose.
The cost is mainly there to prevent an ability from being used without purpose.
Also, nothing is "lost" when you get mana from someone, so don't be concerned with taking it away from another player's character.
Magic in this world doesn't require sacrifice.  The more you use it, the stronger you become.  (Well...the magic you know about so far, anyway... :P)

Blue abilities can be an exception to this since they depend on you making a good decision using the information you gain, but they will also generally refund themselves within a turn or two.

Fair enough. Use green mana to say hello to Amelia and Kevin. No need for soul bond when people are just chatting anyways.

Immortality like that would be even more game breaking than four Aaron's in one place.
You're both so obviously scum that this is a surprisingly difficult decision.

Use my calming aura to stop the panicking creature and calm calico down, then let calico's curiosity take over.
I'm guessing that is some sort of spirit.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

Rosa’s royal. Got it.
Powerful and smart. Yep. Glad she seems decent.

Um...
Is there anything to really do right now? Does it seem that Rosa knows I exist? Is there a way to show Octavian that I exist? Do we just kinda have a timeskip soon to our destination? What do I do?
